Community Partnership Program

The Community Partnership Program is a community-based initiative of HealthForceOntario Marketing and Recruitment Agency (HFO MRA). The program staff -- Community Partnership Coordinators -- provide on-the-ground recruitment support to community recruiters, health care organizations and health care providers within the 14 Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) areas across Ontario.

Here are some of the ways the Community Partnership Coordinators support communities:

• Assist recruiters and stakeholders with community-based recruitment and retention.
• Develop recruitment and retention best practices, policies, guidelines and materials that can be used across the province.
• Assist with health human resource planning within each LHIN area and integrate the province’s health human resource strategy with local needs.
• Support HFO MRA physician recruitment efforts and improve coordination of recruitment and relocation province-wide.
